Financial Assurances Plan – operations phase
a) Trans Mountain must file with the NEB for approval,
at least 6 months prior
to applying for leave to open Line 2
, a Financial Assurances Plan that includes
details of the financial resources and secured sources of funds that will be
necessary to pay, without limitation, all actual loss or damage, costs and
expenses, including cleanup and remediation, and loss of non-use value relating
to non-use of a public resource associated with an unintended or uncontrolled
release from the Project during the operations phase.
86
These costs may arise
from, among other things, potential accidents, malfunctions, and failures during
the Project operations phase, including all spills originating from the pipeline
and the terminals.
The Financial Assurances Plan must be signed by an officer of the company,
verifying that it is accurate, complete, and, at a minimum, meets the criteria and
coverage levels described below:
i)
Criteria for financial assurance instruments and plan:
1) Any letter of credit that forms part of the Financial Assurances Plan must be
unconditional and irrevocable, segregated from Trans Mountain's day-to-day
business activities, and be dedicated to providing funds to cover the costs
described in sub a) above, without limitation.
2) Third party liability insurance must be current, and broad, respecting the
scope of environmental damages covered by the policy; the policy will
be consistent with provisions available in the insurance market (i.e., only
exceptional/non-standard perils, taking into account the Project's nature
and scope, would be excluded from coverage). Such insurance must be
structured on a multi-year basis, recognizing potential loss of income by
persons sustaining damage caused by Trans Mountain, over a reasonable
number of years after the event.
3) A portion of cash reserves or a portion of future cash flows of the Project
may be included as instruments in the Financial Assurances Plan, provided
they are secured by a commitment letter from an officer of the company
confirming that the funds will be dedicated to the Financial Assurances Plan
without restrictions for the period specified by the officer.
